A private Chinese commercial space company, in collaboration with a Thai university, has conducted the first trial of a low-orbit satellite internet broadband communication network successfully in Thailand.

The trial represents the initial overseas use of China's low-orbit broadband satellite internet.

GalaxySpace, a satellite manufacturer based in Beijing, established a ground test station at the Mahanakorn University of Technology in Thailand to assess the communication capabilities of millimeter-wave satellite signals under local weather conditions.

"This cooperation provides a platform that local enterprises and universities can use to research low-orbit satellite communication systems, and helps boost the development of Thailand's related technological capabilities and application scenarios," said Liu Chang, vice president of GalaxySpace.
